Booked for Wedding

We had the pleasure of Oscar and Barney perform at our wedding. We both have irish heritage and were really looking for an authentic 'irish bar' experience for the change around time. Oscar and Barney we're so accommodating allowing us to select a more flexible option for what we wanted in terms of timings to fit in to our day perfectly. They were very happy to make our irish bar vision come to life! So many people came up to us after about how fantastic they had been. We couldn't recommend them enough.

Booked for Wedding

Price of My Pig were fantastic. We hired them for our wedding evening, as we wanted to have a Ceilidh for the guests. The band was flexible to meet our requirements for during the buffet, and were excellent at getting all of the guests involved and on the dance floor, to make sure that there was always dancing going on! The music was fantastic, and the musicians were incredible. Thank you Ben and the band for making our wedding evening a blast!

Booked for Private party

We had a Glastonbury-like home garden festival with family and friends. We booked Shenanigans for some live entertainment in the early evening - the description of simple Irish folk music with plenty of audience participation attracted us. They were great from point of contact to their performance. Very talented, good range of Irish folk songs and great audience engagement. Made a great weekend even more enjoyable!

Lift the Roof Off Your Party with the 'Rock-Ceilidh' Band

5.0(7 reviews)

Lift the roof off your party with the rock-ceilidh band! We mix well-known rock riffs amongst traditional ceilidh tunes on our electric instruments and we give full instructions using fun-filled banter to make sure everyone can enjoy the dancing. We entertain guests in Central Scotland, in hotels, huts, castles, and under canvas. Although we often do 100% ceilidh, disco also comes with the package - many clients prefer 'rock' ceilidh until half-time and then disco to finish the evening.

About supplier

After many years playing with ceilidh bands both in Ireland and Scotland, award-winning Northern Ireland-born fiddle player, Mary Gristwood, started the Rock Ceilidh Band in 2014 combining her two favorite music genres - rock and trad.

Behan's Footsteps Duo are two brothers based in West Yorkshire who play exhilarating and soulful Irish folk music, with the occasional Scottish ceilidh tune added in. We have played Irish music since we were old enough to hold our instruments! Behan's Footsteps have been playing Celtic music for as long as they could walk. We know how to make people dance, and we know how to make them cry.

About supplier

We are able to provide differing atmospheres for different occasions. We enjoy playing raucous, high-energy shows but are equally happy playing a beautiful ballad as a bride strolls down the aisle. Our sets are always catered to the event that we're playing.
